Janell C - My Drabulous Fabulous Life
I really love the look and feel of Janell's blog. I like the way her title is a play of opposites, drab and fab, as well as the description of herself in the first paragraph of her very well written introductory post, "simple yet complicated". Altogether a great looking, well organized, and well written blog.
Kellon V - Gamers Cafe
Kellon's title leaves no doubt about who he is. In his first post, he writes about his passions in life, and the next two posts show that he knows what he's talking about when it comes to those passions. I love his review of his initial impressions of Halo: Reach, he writes with lots of detail and description. I'm sure other gamers would find his reviews helpful.
Week of November 4, 2010 Cosmo's Blog of Awesomeness-Traveling
Cosmo's Photopeach about traveling is a great example of how you can tell an entire story with images and just a few words. His slideshow isn't just a collection of pictures of the places he's been (and he's been everywhere), but also conveys the whole travel experience, delayed flights and all.
Anna W. W.'s Blog - Slug Bug post
First, Anna's Slug Bug post brought back memories of the Volkswagon Bug that I drove in high school, so I had a personal connection with the post. Second, I like how she did some research to find the history of the whole "slug bug" phenomenon, very interesting. And third, she illustrated it with a great photo collage. Nice.
Week of November 23, 2010 Jonathan D's Post - My new video
Jonathan' PowerPoint animation is simply amazing! I watched it over and over again because I just could not believe the time and patience required to make such a cool and innovative show. 341 slides! WOW!
Jay's Blog of Stuff
Jay's blog has an unwavering theme: APPLE! The design of his blog is much like the design of Apple products, clean lined and easy to navigate. I really like his use of images and video (check out his Glog), and the use of the RSS feed widget keeps the reader up to date on Apple news. Steve Jobs would be pleased.
